j Has Something to Say About the Lowell of
the South,
| The following is an extract from a let-
j ter written by Mr. Ira Momery, a New
; Jersey gentleman, who recently visited
Columbus, to the Stanhope N, J.) Eagle:
About one hundred and twenty-five
| miles southwest from Atlanta, on the east
t bank of the Chattahoochee river, which
| divides Georgia from Alabama, lies what
i is called the “Lowell of the South.” Co-
lumbus is o called because of its many
! cotton mills, which in a large measure
' resemble the old cotton manufacturing
j town in Massachusetts. It is in a fertile
valley which produces cotton, corn, oats,
! melons, sweet potatoes, peaches, figs and
n , . I grapes in great abundance, and
PillU Oil DC])OSllS. is aiso important as being at the head of
1 ‘ ! navigation on the Chattahoochee river,
i which empties into the Apalachicola bay.
At Apalachicola, Fla., 500 miles farther
south, which, before the advent of rapid
transit by railroads, was a great cotton
shipping point. Columbus is a character
istic southern city, with wide, well shaded
streets, and the broad, low houses with
wide, open porches and hall ways,
suggestive of airy comfort. The city is
beautifully laid out, the streets running
east and west and called avenues, and are
numbered beginning at one and running
up, while those running north and south
are streets, cumbered one, etc, There is
just 100 numbers of houses in each block,
representing Philadelphia in this respect,
and a stranger has no trouble in finding
any desired locality. In religious matters,
the preponderance which Baptist and
Methodist denominations obtains through
the south is sustained here in the order
named. The Baptists and Methodists each
have seven churches, while there is only
one each of the other denominations.
Schools are well provided and all the mod
ern improvements and equipments for cit /
government and facilities of trade and
pleasure are to be found, including the
dummy street cars and electricity. The
30,000 inhabitants own and run seven large
cotton mills, two iron foundries, three cot
ton presses, knitting factory, cotton seed
oil mills, broom factories, and many other
smaller industries. The hotels are large
and well kept. The Rankin House will
compare favorably with any hotel in the
state, except, possibly, the Kimball in
Atlanta.

ATTEMPTED TO ESCAPE.
Saiu Lai kin, of IJrowneville, Makes a Futile
Attempt to Get Away From the Guard*.
It wiii be remembered that a couple of
weeks ago Sam Larkin, a colored citizen of
Browneviiie, knocked a woman in the
head, for which offense he was placed on
the chain gang.
Yesterday he made a desperate effort to
escape, but failed in the attempt through
the alertness of one of the guards.
He asked the guard, Mr. R. S. Schaver,
permission to return to the camp for some
thing that he had forgot there, and was al
lowed to go. When absent about twenty
minutes, Mr. Schaver thought it about
time for Larkin to return, and went in
search of him. He did not have to go tar,
for coming to the edge of the woods near
by, he saw Larkin" about two hundred
yards away, and making for the river as
fast as possible.
Schaver at once gave the alarm and set
out after the fugitive. After running about
a half a mile, Larkin was captured, but not
until five shots had been fired at him with
the good effect of scaring him into sur
rendering.
He was brought back to camp and put
to work. Had it not been for the alertness
and the good running qualities of Mr,
Schaver, Larkin would have undoubtedly
escaped.

A Pleasant Event.
One of the events of the season occurred
last night at Reich’s garden, where the
Columbus Athletic Club held their sixth
annual meeting. Mr. F. C. Reich, the
president, introduced the talented and
eloquent speaker of the evening, Mr. B, R.
Nichoison, who traced back the origin of
the athletic games, and cited the bloody
battles fought by the ancient Greek for
supremacy over the Gaul and the Lacidi-
monians, and explained how the athletic
skill of the former, in the use of the crude
irndements of war in vogue at that date,
won a renown which is being handed
down from generation to generation as
examples of heroisms worthy of note. Mr.
Nicholson handled his subject in a manner
which showed a thorough understanding
of the subject matter, and the applause
which followed showed the appreciation
of the audience, which had followed him
through his discourse.
The chairs were then removed from the
floor and the soul-insDiriDg strains of
“Strauss” reverberated through the
ample hall. The Athletic Club of Colum
bus is represented by the blood and sinew
of the Queen City of Georgia, and added
to that the beauty and grace of the gen
tler sex as they glided over the floor in
the “mystic maze,” was an occasion to
soften the hearts of the gods.
Refreshments were served in due season
and the dancing continued until the “wee-
sma” hours of the morning, when all left
for their homes with an exalted appreci
ation of this meritorious “club.”

A Chapter on Behavior.
Editors Enquirer Sun: Permit me a
few words in your columns to those w ho j
shall feel that this concerns them. If ail
would know how to behave,what a beauti
ful world this would be! It is beautiful
now, as far as its natural and mechanical
resources are concerned, but the human
behavior, if it were as it oughc to be,
would enhance the splendor. If you are
in the circle ofi your immediate friends,
only they (if they are not blind to your
faults) can see your absurdities, but the
moment you place yourself outside of this
circle your deportment is open to public
gaze and public opinion. Ah, would you
then see yourself as others see you! Some
time ago I encroached on the space of this
paper with an article on behavior in front
of churches,and,to the credit of our young
men, I must say that it worked like a
charm. They ail—all I say—have recog
nized the great admonition, and, like gen
tlemen, they have since then ceased from
congregating in front of churches; but
now I wish to speak to both, ladies and
genilemeD, and that of the behavior in
side of the church. And why I do it
through the medium of this paper ia be
cause the paper is the best preacher. A
preacher is heard only by his audience—
bv his behaving audience I should say;
iEe paper, however, thrusts itself upon
everybody at his, or her, home and leisure.
Ths preacher’s word expires with the
sound, the paper furnishes you with
an article you may cut out and paste it
into your scrap book, and gives you
the opportunity to learn the lesson it
preacher well. May you, then, learn this
lesson, and learn it wel!, that neither the
fashion plate nor your prepossessing ap
pearance—nay, not even you’’ pedigree,
will establish your standing of manhood or
womanhood, if your behavior is absurd.
It is mortifying to see at times ladies with
refined looks and apparent, or even real
attainments, in church giggiiDg, whisper
ing, and otherwise disbehaving, to say
nothing of the beys and young men strik
ing chorus to it, annoying others that are
bent on devotion. What they themselves
do not care to hear and iearn, they pre
vent others by distracting their attention.
This is, not to say irreligious only, but it is
unlady and ungentleman like If the
teachings of the church is incompatible
with your tastes, stay away; seek other
places to manifest your absurdity. Were
we to enter a mosque where Mohamedans
worship, or a Greek church, which is con
trary to your Christianity; or a Mormon
temple, which you stamp as an abomina
tion; or a Jewish synagogue, which has
doctrines beyond your limited conception,
still we must know that propriety of be
havior. We must do unto others as we
wouid that others should do unto us.
Would some come to your house and dis-
behave, I will not describe what would fol
low, but you can go to a house—not yours
—belonging to another parly, a congre
gation, or denomination, and behave dis
respectfully. Suppose that minister, whose
movements you closely watch as not to be
detected by him, wouid still discover your
improper conduct, and rebuke ycu there
andjthen, were such rebuke untimely? You
undoubtedly would denounce such proce
dure at thepart of the minister; but would
one disbehave at your house, which is not
a house of devotion, you would feel justi
fied not only to rebuke, but to give him a
ticket of leave.
Let this, then, be your Sunday lesson:
“Have more than thou smwest,
speak ie.-3 than thou kuowest.
Lead less than thou owest,
Learn more than thou trowest.
Set less than thou throweat,”—Shakespeare

Cotton Futures.
New York, August 21.—The Sun says:
Cotton futures dropped 5 to 20 points,
August being especially weak, and closing
prices were 7 to 17 points lower for the
day. Liverpool, was 3 64 to 4-64d lower,
and this fact, together with libera! long
selliug here, partly on tap orders, and the
raiding by bear operators, caused the de
cline, to which, it may be added, favora
ble crop advices in some measure con
tributed. There was considerable Ameri
can selling in Liverpool. Receipts at the
ports were 975 bales against 697 this day
last week and 2217 last year. Spot cotton
was higher—midling uplands 114c, gulf
lljc.
Approved by the President.
Washington, August 21.—The presi
dent, upon recommendation of the civil
service commission, has approved the
amendment to the rules governing the
railway mail service, excepting from ex
amination clerks employed in that service
exclusively as porters in handling mail
matter in bulk in sacks or pouches, and
not otherwise, and clerks employed exclu
sively on steamships.
LOCAL ITEMS.
—Mr. D. G. Munn was the lucky winner of the

—A telegram’was received in the city yesterday
from Hanson, Ky , annonni ing the safe arrival

daughter of Mr. J. B. Gordon. The little Miss
left here alone on Saturday, and her many
friends here will be pleased to learn of her safe
arrival.
The Baptist Convention.
The Baptist convention convened at
=Chipley yesterday, and was very largely
attended. Mr. C. E. Estes, of Columbus,
was elected moderator, Mr. W. B. Bald
win, secretary. President Isunnally, of
the Mercer University, was present and
addressed the meeting.
firhe Case Against Mr. Roberts Dismissed.
Twenty-five witnesses were examined
■before Sir. Grimes yesterday morning in
the cases against Mr. E. F. Roberts, pro
prietor of the Echo and Centennial bars,
the charge being keeping open tippling
houses on Sunday. August 18. None ot
the witnesses swore that they were in
.either of the bars on that day, and the
cases were dismissed.
This is not the end of the matter how*
ever. ;An officer informed a reporter last
night that he was satisfied it could be
proven that the houses were open on a
Lumber of Sundays previous to fast Sun
day. Another investigation will be had
this morning.
In the case yesterday City Attorney
Crawford appeared for the city and Mr.
J. H. Worrill for the defense.
One of the witnesses, John Hughes, cre
ated a hearty laugh during the examina-
tian by the statement that he started up
the alley Sunday and met a man about
half way, who said that it was no use for
him to go as everything was as “dry as
■h—11” up there.

Work of the Worms.
Mr. O. C. Bullock received a letter from
one of his Marion county tenants yester
day, stating that caterpillars had appeared
in large numbers, ana were doing serious
damage to the cotton crop.
A similar report comes from Col. L. F.
Humber’s Stewart county plantation. Col.
Humber will use poison largely, and may
succeed in preventing the worms from
doing serious damage. He fears, however,
that they may injure his crop 2-5 per cent.
Frightened Away.
Two or three days ago, as the overseer
on Mr. T. J. Douglass’ farm, near the city,
was returning form his dinner he discov
ered a negro with one of Mr. Douglass’
yearlings driving it toward town. The
overseer questioned him, but received
evasive answers, and finally the negro
dropped the rope with which the animal
was tied and fled to the swamp. Mr.
Douglass has lost several head recently.

office which he filled; a very kingly master; a
constant, willing, loyal servant of the craft he
so well loved and served, “His place shall know
him no more, forever.” His memory will remain
deep gr.ven upon our hearts.
His example will be even as a beacon light,
which we may follow in the fullness of a confid
ing faith, as leading the way from this lodge
among the dwellings of earth to that celestial
temple into which our beloved brother has been
called, “That house not made with hands,eternal
in the heavens,”
Resolved, That while we tender to his be
reaved wife and family our tender and c ost
earnest sympathy, yet we grieve for him not as
one who has liven in vain, but who has m.de
the world brighter and better by his presence,
and in his death we fell that
“When the mild and just die, sweet airs breathe,
The world grows richer, as if desert stream
Should sink away, to sparkle ap again
Parer, with broader gleam.

The foregoing resolutions having been received
and unanimously adopted by a rising vote of
Mount Hermon Lodge, it was further resolved
and ordered that they be spread upon its min
utes, and a copy thereof transmitted to his fam
ily under seal o: this lodge.

Wooltlriclg-e’s Wonderful Cure,
Unlocks the Store House
Of Healtii and Evicts
The Enemy.
Wooldridge’s Wonderful’ Cure is
a happy combination of elemen
tary principals, adapted to antidote
certain specific poisons, and to al-
lign itself with the vital forces to
restore natural energy. Its action
is upon the stomach, the intestines,
the liver, on all the glands and all
the other organs that have.part in
making and purifying the blood.
Antidote, nutralize and expel
poison, and make pure blood and
you are not far from health. This
is what Wooldridge’s Wonderful
Cure does, and why it cures the
class of diseases that the certifi
cates show it has done.
Mrs. A. C. BIcGeliee.
My wife has keen afflicted for six years with
a most dreadful blood po son of some kind, called
salt rheum by eminent physicians. During this
period she was treated by several specialists.
Has taken quantities of all the b ood purifiers on
the market, without realizing any special benefit.
She is now using Wooldridge’s Wonderful Cure,
a few bottles of which has made a complete cure.
I unhesitatingly recommend it as the best blood
purifier ever discovered. Yours truly,
A. C. McGehee.

I beg to announce that I have inaugurated the Club System of supply
GOLD STEM WINDER WATCH payable in an easy way, and in answer to name
inquiries relative to the working of this plan I wish to submit the following points for your cor
eration and perusal:
As soon as the number of subscribers amounts to, say sixty, the price of the watch to be
chased, each subscriber will be notified that the list is closed; and after each member of the c!
has made his first payment, it will be decided by lot who shall get the first watch. Thus the
tributions will take place week after week until all members shall be in the possession of ti
watches. Affer a member has received a watch, he wiil have to keep on paying"his dollar per w
the same as the other members until the watch is paid for f$69.00), and on receiving his watch
has to give approved security for the future regular payments. Incase of the death of oae of
members, we are willing to refund the money paid in to the legal heirs or administrators: and
case a member should wish to withdraw, he can either find a substitute or take out other merch
dise to the amount of his share paid in. If a party wants to pay more than $1.00 per week—say $
or $3.00—he can do so, and thereby increase the probability of coming sooner in possession of
watch.
